Census ‘faked’ 2012 election jobs report

In the home stretch of the 2012 presidential campaign, from August to September, the unemployment rate fell sharply — raising eyebrows from Wall Street to Washington.

The decline — from 8.1 percent in August to 7.8 percent in September — might not have been all it seemed. The numbers, according to a reliable source, were manipulated.

And the Census Bureau, which does the unemployment survey, knew it.

Just two years before the presidential election, the Census Bureau had caught an employee fabricating data that went into the unemployment report, which is one of the most closely watched measures of the economy.

And a knowledgeable source says the deception went beyond that one employee — that it escalated at the time President Obama was seeking reelection in 2012 and continues today.

We all knew they were going to falsify the numbers a year before they did for the election. We also knew the Fascist lame street Media would celebrate the falsification of these numbers. Anything to get the jihadist fascist president elected.

Anyone with a brain knows that the unemployment rate is really close to 12% or higher depending on the group being designated. Among all teens and especially young black men the numbers are staggering. When you don’t count those who have given up it is always a bogus number. The work force participation numbers have not been so low since the depression in the 1920’s.

The Census Bureau does not compile the employment numbers. And the GOP very famously gerrymandered every district they could so that even though they didn’t have the numbers to support their idea, programs, etc. they managed to hang on to the House. Nothing fake about that, right????

Gee, a 200mph typhoon doesn’t do it for you on global warming? You’re the low-information voter that the repugnicans JUST LOVE. You live in a southern state where your mantra is ‘git yur hands off my Medicare!” and where the southern states take more money from the federal government than they pay in taxes. You think right-to-work gives you freedom – yeah, it gives you the freedom to work yourself to death for the least amount of money your corporate ‘friends’ want to pay you without any protections at all for your families when you die on the job. As the saying goes you are entitled to your own opinions, but not to your own facts. Good luck with that.
